THE GROUP.

Nikon has been renowned for high-quality optics and camera equipment since they were founded in 1919. The history of Nikon cameras began in 1948, the year that the Nikon I, the company's first camera was released. Today Nikon continues that legacy with an outstanding line of digital SLR (single lens reflex) cameras including the D90, D300, D800, D3 and the new D3x.

This group is a place for users of all Nikon digital SLR and point-and-shoot cameras to share their experiences, demonstrate techniques through example, and discuss Nikon's latest offerings.

Hi, I just got a carbon fiber tripod. The legs are very tight to pull out. Was wondering if I rub WD40 on them if it would do any damage to the legs. Or is there something else I could put on them?…Continue

Nikon made three lenses in that range, 20mm, 24mm (I think) and 28mm. I have both the 20mm and 28mm f/2.8 AIs and they are great for landscapes and for walking around a city centre. They are well worth the cheap price you will pay for them.

Landscapes do not require autofocus. Get outstanding quality cheap get the Nikkor Ai(s). I recomend the Nikkor 28mm f 2.8 Ai(s). Available used at many outlets can get new only at B&H photo. Without autofocus this lens is a breeze to focus.
